The weather had still not particularly warmed up for the start of the second in our consecutive run of three Sunday rides. After Cake Mountain we were intent on a flat, leisurely off road circuit round Newham . A goodly band of participants included a contingent from the Forest Gate Women’s Institute assembled at the Greenway Common Cafe. Our 15 mile route started down the Greenway, and continued through Beckton to the Royal Docks, stopping only for a breather/puncture repair. We then took in nature reserves at East india Dock and the Bow Ecology Park. The latter is newly linked to a back entrance to Canning Town Station. Lunch at Trinity Buoy Wharf was swiftly followed by another coffee stop at Cody Dock, whilst all the time the weather was getting more cheerful. We returned to the Greenway under a blue sky.
Thanks once more to Robin for some excellent photos.
